Abstract

Patients undergoing decompressive hemicraniectomy often have temporal wasting. We present a technique to manage temporalis wasting at the time of cranioplasty. Using poly methyl methacrylate, a small temporal implant is placed during cranioplasty. This is both a simple and cost effective technique for temporal augmentation at the time of cranioplasty.
